Boy, this week is flying by! Only 3 more days until Christmas! Are you ready??
I really enjoy looking through all of the links every week. I am always amazed by your talent!!
For this week's features I am focusing on Christmas again. What are we going to do when we have to take all of this pretty stuff down??? I'm already depressed...lol.
Take a look at this fun and whimsical tree created by Suzi at Worthington Court. If you have not visited her blog you should. She has some wonderful Christmas decor!
For a tutorial on how to make those wonderful cones visit The Project Queen. Love the way this sideboard is decorated! You all know how much I love peppermint and gingerbread decor! Visit Pinky at Designs by Pinky for more pics of her pretty Christmas decor. Love this Santa mantle by Linda at Beautiful Ideas! She really does have some beautiful ideas...
This tree is adorable for a little girl's room...look at the zebra tree skirt! Visit A Southern Sanctuary for more pics. I was going to show you my parent's house tonight, but decided to save that for Friday.
One of my clients told me about Smilebox.com the other day. It's a site where you can put a slide show together with music. You can e-mail your slide show, post it on a blog, share it on facebook, or burn it onto a CD. It's a really neat site! I decided to mess around with it today and came up with a slide show of some of my Christmas creations of 2011. It includes my house and some of the houses I decorated this year.
Just click PLAY to watch the slide show...you might want to visit Smilebox. com to make your own!
I know you are all probably busy getting ready for the big day. If you have time I would love for you to link up!
You can share an item you have created, a room you have decorated, a piece of furniture you have painted, a vignette, a recipe...the list goes on and on.
Please add a link back to my blog so others can find the party.
Wow, Kristen! What a delightful surprise to see my Christmas tree featured! Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you and your family. Now off to watch your slideshow...
I love your blog. Thanks for the opportunity to join your party. It was so much fun. And, I was so SURPRISED to see my 'Santa Mantle' featured. Thank you for the lovely compliment! I'm new to blog land and to the blog parties, so this is a first for me and VERY EXCITING! Lol
Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your entire family.
I'm a 42yr. old mother of 1. I've been married for 21years to a wonderful man, Kevin. We have one son together named Chase who is 14. We live in a small town in Arkansas and have a dog named Sassy, a cat named Coco and now a chinchilla, Tiki. My husband is a Database Administrator and I have my own business called Kristen's Creations where I make and sell a variety of crafts. I worked in a shop as a floral designer for 15 yrs. until it closed. My former boss decided to retire and lease out her building. I enjoy crafting, decorating, and hanging out with my family.
